familiarization with me would entail
bringing the avid listener 
into my private mancave hideaways
less a physical place than a juncture in relationship,

among up and coming geneticists and historians
that the precursor to the regeneration of a species,
or even an...

{intro} 
One step closer to you
I want to fly into your arms,
